Introduction

Claude is Anthropic's AI assistant, available on the web, in the desktop app, and on mobile. Cowork is its agent for knowledge work, and it runs on all of those surfaces too. Connected to your apps, Claude can work with your files and services to accomplish complex tasks on your behalf.

This guide walks you through the easiest and most secure way to connect your Typless account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to show me all available document types, update your email address in Typless, get your current Typless profile details, and more such actions on your behalf without compromising your account security.

Setup is the same on Claude Web, Desktop, and Cowork, and you only need to do it once. The connector is tied to your account, so it's available in all three.

3. Connect your Typless account

Back in Claude, ask it to connect to Typless or give it any Typless-related task.

For example, ask Claude to:

  • "Show me all available document types"
  • "Update your email address in Typless"
  • "Get your current Typless profile details"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

That's it. Composio's tools are now available in Claude, and your Typless account is ready to use.

What is the Typless Claude Connector, and what's possible with it?

The Typless MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Typless account. It provides structured and secure access to your Typless document automation and user profile, so your agent can perform actions like fetching available document types, retrieving profile details, and updating account information on your behalf.

  • Retrieve available document types: Ask your agent to list all document schemas in your Typless account, helping you decide which types to automate or process.
  • Fetch user profile details: Let your agent instantly pull your Typless user information to verify account status or personalize workflows.
  • Update profile information: Direct your agent to update your user profile, such as changing your email address or name, for seamless account management.
  • Schema selection and preparation: Have your agent suggest or select the right document type for incoming files, streamlining document extraction setup.

Troubleshooting

1. Why does Claude not use the Composio connector for Typless?

The connector can show as connected, but Claude must use it in each Typless conversation.

  • Click + at the lower left of the chat, or type /.
  • Hover Connectors.
  • Turn on Composio.
  • Ask Claude to connect to Typless again.

2. Why does Claude show an MCP server error before Typless connects?

Claude can show Couldn't reach the MCP server or Authorization with the MCP server failed when you add the connector for Typless.

  • Check that the connector URL is https://connect.composio.dev/mcp.
  • Connectors run from Anthropic's cloud, so your device network is usually not the problem.
  • Add the connector again from Customize > Connectors, then ask Claude to connect Typless.
  • If it fails again, send the error and the ofid_ reference id to support@composio.dev.

3. Why does the Typless authorization link not work?

The Composio connector is one server. Your Typless account connects separately when Claude asks for it.

  • If the browser does not open, or the link expires, ask Claude to retry the Typless connection.
  • Composio creates a fresh Typless authorization link.
  • Open that link in your browser and finish the Typless sign-in.

4. Why do Typless actions fail after they worked before?

The Typless connection can expire or lose permission.

  • Ask Claude to inspect the Typless connection.
  • If the connection is unhealthy, disconnect it when Claude prompts you.
  • Reconnect the Typless account and retry the action.
  • If Claude shows a permission prompt, approve it before Claude changes data in Typless.
  • If the action still fails with a permission error, check that the connected account has that permission in Typless itself.

5. How do I switch to a different Typless account?

Claude can manage the Typless connection for you.

  • Ask Claude to disconnect or delete the current Typless account.
  • Ask Claude to connect Typless again.
  • Open the new Composio authorization link for Typless.
  • Sign in with the other Typless account in the browser.
  • After the account connects, ask Claude to retry the Typless task.

6. Why is my Typless connection missing in Claude Desktop or on a Team plan?

The connector belongs to your Claude account, so your Typless connection works in Claude Web, Desktop, and Cowork.

  • In Claude Desktop, open Customize > Connectors.
  • Next to Composio, click ⋮ and click Clear cache.
  • If Typless tools still do not appear, click ⋮, disconnect, remove the connector, and add it again.
  • On Team or Enterprise, an Owner or Primary Owner must enable the connector before you can connect Typless.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

With a standalone Typless MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Typless tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Typless and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

Yes, you can. Claude Cowork fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Typless tools.

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Typless scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do.

All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Typless data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
